Expose the PNACers

Posted by sean on May 07, 2003

Jack Mottram of Submit Response – a sharply written scottish blog – points to PNAC.info, a site exposing the details of the previously mentioned shadowy Project for a New American Century.

I still can’t get my head around PNAC, because the organisation is a strange sort of open conspiracy: it bears all the hallmarks of the shadowy military-industrial complex cabals that litter conspiracy theory, with suitably sinister aims, but it carries out its business in the open. (Of course, the paranoid amongst us will take this as evidence that, if this scary shit is out in the open, the shit behind closed doors must be really scary.)

Personally I feel no need to be so paranoid. I’ve often thought that shadowy conspiracy theories just take our eye off the ball, there’s plenty enough bad shit going on out there in full public view, just most of us are relatively blind to it.
